There Can be Only One

The question is often asked -

You can only have one watch, what would it be?

Now in fairness, my answer often changes, but more often than not I find myself coming back to this particular version of Patek Philippe's Calatrava - the 5116R-001.  Nice and sane with a diameter of 36 mm.  Beautiful hobnail bezel - this is the one… at least for now ; )

Manually wound - just as it should be!  Here are the details -

• Mechanical manually wound movement
• Caliber 215 PS
• Seconds subdial
• Hobnail-patterned bezel
• Authentic enamel dial with black Roman numerals
• Strap: alligator with square scales, hand-stitched, shiny black
• Sapphire-crystal case back
• Water resistant to 30 m
• Rose gold
• Case diameter: 36 mm
